Ed White was a consensus All-American at the University of California and split his 17-year professional career in the NFL with the Minnesota Vikings and San Diego Chargers.
White was a part of many successful Vikings teams that competed for their multiple Super Bowl attempts, and he was a large part of the protection of Fran Tarkenton and other offensive weapons. The Guard was traded to San Diego, and helped protect another Hall of Fame Quarterback in Dan Fouts, and overall was rewarded with four Pro Bowls.
White played in 241 Games, and is one of the most tenured Offensive Lineman in NFL history.
Anyone who plays 225 Games defensively in the National Football League is without question a double-tough competitor, and that is what we have in the run-stuffing Linebacker, Hardy Nickerson.
